Welcome!

Thanks for stopping by!

We are two house-loving DIYers now onto our second house. One of us has vision...and one has actual skills.

Design and working on our home are our major hobbies, whenever we have a few moments of free time not devoted to our daughter or jobs. We are hoping to share our ideas, triumphs and mistakes to help other DIYers and get new ideas from all of you!

Ghost? Bistro? Industrial? Mission?

While I have enjoyed sitting on our $30 a piece stools from Target, I am excited to choose ones that really compliment our new kitchen (to go with the breakfast bar and to-be-determined 2'x3' workspace/mini island)

We are Francophiles.... remember our trip to Paris? And we have some classic marble in our backsplash and other classic touches, so I am digging these Restoration Hardware French Cafe Stools. Classic, a back is always more comfy than without, and surprisingly affordable for Restoration Hardware. They look like this, but with longer legs:

I don't want to splurge and spend 500 bucks on these things...NOT our "forever" kitchen! But, I do want them to really add something to the space...thoughts? Find any others we should consider? Bonus points for finding great bargains :)
